One of our Best Buy sources just pinged us and alerted us that Apple TV is not just out of stock at his store, but Apple TVs are no longer shipping to the stores at all anymore.

A customer was inquiring tonight about Apple TV. However right now we are out of stock (Which hasn’t happened since I started). Not only were we out of stock, but also I was also unable to order one from our product ordering system (OMS). Product was listed as “currently unavailable”. From prior experience, this usually is associated with a product that is being “discontinued”.

Some online resellers do have them in stock. MacMall and MacConnection, for instance, have them. However, it seems more than a little curious that the biggest retailers in the United States all seem to be running dry on Apple TVs just ahead of an Apple event.
